Memoirs of nurse Eva Kahn Minden from 1934 to 1951. She describes training, apprenticeship, and experiences as a nurse helping displaced persons (DPs) at Bergen Belsen concentration camp after liberation.Eva Kahn Minden was born in Germany in 1922. She emigrated to England in 1939 to escape Hitler's Germany and lived there for about thirteen years. She trained in England as a nurse and spent about two years as a relief worker in Bergen Belsen after the war (1946-1948), where she put her nursing skills to good use.Her experiences in Bergen-Belsen brought her to Quare Mead (1949-1950). There she acted as Sister-in-Charge of a group of boys who had survived the Holocaust, but who were recuperating from diseases contracted as a result of their experiences, mostly Tuberculosis. Her experiences at Quare Mead are eloquently described in detail in her book The Road Back (private published via Lulu, contact the printer). Other publications by Eva appeared in the Nursing Mirror, a weekly magazine for English nurses.
